What I really don’t understand is why this discussion is hg v.  
GitHub, when it should be hg v. git. Particular hosting is 
a secondary issue and it could be GitHub or git.python.org (with 
some FLOSS git hosting package ... cgit/gitolite, gitorious, 
gitlab, etc.) or python.gitorious.org (I believe Gitorious 
people might be happy to host you) or whatever else.

Best,
